Aviation Accident Litigation
An aviation accident is a rare occurrence when compared to other personal injury causes. Yet when they do happen, the results are serious injury and death. Most private airplane and helicopter accidents are caused by
- human mistakes or negligence
- faulty or poorly maintained equipment
- fueling negligence or contamination
- hazardous weather
Pilots, flight operations personnel and the manufacturers of aircraft all have a duty to follow the safety standards set by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). However, these rules are not always enforced in a manner that will prevent plane crashes.
The National Transportation Safety board (NTSB) is the federal agency responsible for investigating aviation accidents. This agency also recommends safety standards to prevent accidents from happening in the future.
When these rules are violated, the safety of everybody in the air is endangered. And just as there are different circumstances involved with each accident, the legal recourse in each instance is complex.
Aviation accident cases are subject to many laws and regulations.
Various players become involved with an aircraft accident. Several parties may be held liable. And behind every airplane crash are the insurance companies with teams of savvy lawyers and legal representation.
